TALK TO ME

summary : you comfort robin after a bad day pairings : robin buckley x fem!reader wc : 0.4k warnings : angst but mostly fluff, a bit of foul language, mentions of past bullying. [ a/n : i would throw hands if anyone hurts robin just the facts. ]

you flip through the pages of your book, reading it carefully while waiting for robin to get home so you can discuss what to have for dinner. after a while you hear the door knob turn and the door opening to reveal robin. she was quiet, which wasn't usual since it was a habit for her to ask how you were, or her just to ramble immediately to you. "everything alright, bub?" you ask, waiting for a respond. "bad day" she replies. you walked closer to her and realized the tear stains on her cheeks, and oh were you ready to verbally fight whoever made her cry. you cupped her cheeks as you wipe the tears away. "what happened? are you okay?" you ask, rubbing her cheek. "i'm fine, m'love. just had a bad day" robin says, giving you a some-what sort of a reassuring smile. you didn't want to bombard her with questions so you let her get changed first and you waited until for her to initiate what she needs. so, while waiting you gathered up her favorite movies for you two to watch, you gathered some of her favorite mixtapes, snacks, and just everything you think will make her day better again. you sat on the couch, with the stuff laid out on the table and her favorite movie playing on the tv. robin came out of the shower a few minutes later, quickly making her way to the couch and sitting beside you, resting her head on your chest. you softly stroke her hair, making small braids as she watches the movie. "remember that guy that use to make fun of me in sophomore?" robin asks, breaking the silence. "yeah, what about him?" — "he came into the family video and quickly noticed me, and steve was on his break so he wasn't there in the store" robin ranted. "and i guess he never really had his character development because he immediately started picking on me again as if it was sophomore all over again" she sighed. "and i didn't know how to react which was the worse part so i just let him insult me. you weren't there so you couldn't defend me like you did in sophomore, and no one was there either. keith was probably asleep in the back and again, steve was on his break!" robin rambled as you held her close. "i'm sorry" — "what're you sorry for? you did nothing wrong, bug. he's a dick and you shouldn't listen to his shitty insults, okay? you're the loveliest person in the world and you deserve all the love, and i'm sorry that i wasn't there" you stated. gosh, you were the sweetest person ever and robin couldn't be luckier to be with you. your nice words made her sob a bit as she held you close. "i love you so much, y/n" robin smiled as you kiss her forehead. "i love you more, bug".

SWEETEST THING. robin buckley.

summary: robin hates coffee. one of the baristas could change that.

warning: fluff. nervous ramble. profanities.

word count: 1.4k

a/n: this is my first fic <33 this is also a repost because it wouldn't appear in the tags :(( hope you like it!

steve was really confused as to why robin pulled up in a coffee shop during their break.

“robin, what are we doing here?” stopping the car engine, robin replies with a whisper, “remember the girl i told you about? the one i bumped into at the school library? yeah, she works here.”

steve still confused, “oh yeah you couldn’t shut up about her,” steve rolled his eyes. “and she works here? here? a coffee shop?” robin nods. “but you HATE coffee!” robin looks at steve with an i know look.

just the thought of coffee made robin’s stomach churn, she never liked the taste of coffee, she always thought it was bitter.

“also why are you whispering?”

“i don’t know. what if she hears us?”

“she’s so far away!”

“i don’t know steve what if she DOES”

the two finally decided to exit the car and head inside where they were welcomed by you.

the smell of coffee hitting robin made her nose scrunch. but her eyes lit up the moment she saw you.

you with your warm smile, uniform, brown apron, hair in a low bun, saying something about how you’ve ran out of chocolate chips to your co-worker.

her knees felt weak when she saw your glowing smile. one of the reasons why she couldn’t take her eyes off you. it’s like your smile could light up a whole town. you were pure sunshine.

“robin!” steve called out. “yeah?” finally realizing that it was her turn to order. “oh uhm hi..” she smiled. “1 strawberry donut, th-the one with sprinkles.” you type it down on the register and looked at her to continue. god she’s so beautiful. can we talk about her frec-

robin panicked when she said she wanted the one with sprinkles. what if you thought she was weird? are sprinkles for kids? is it bad she didn’t order coffee?

“and one americano for me.” you look back at steve whom you didn’t even notice if he hadn’t spoken up. you were trying so hard to not stare at robin, it would be really weird if she would notice.

“that’ll be 8.99. paper or plastic?” you ask.

“really? robin buckley went here?” your co-worker, denise asked you.

“yes, denise. she went here and she ordered a donut.” you found it adorable. she looked really cute today, you think she just came from work based on the fact she was with steve, and she was wearing that cute video store uniform with the vest and the necktie...

“she doesn’t like coffee though,” denise said, pulling you from your thoughts.

“remember last year when i gave coffee to my class on the first day of our exams, she said she didn’t like coffee. so i gave the extra one to you even though i already gave you one. hence, you being introduced to the robin buckley.” she narrates before taking a bite of her glazed donut.

“then me still having a crush on her a year later.” you groan. “man, this is hard. i’m not even sure if she likes girls. what if she’s dating steve? oh god i hope not. i saw steve flirt with someone at the store a week ago.”

“chill out, they’re not dating. i swear.” she gives you a smile. “just ask her out. c’mon you’ve liked her for a year. staring at her isn’t gonna get you anywhere. she says no, then no. she says yes, then okay! you’ve got yourself a girl. but if you don’t say anything, this will be just another thing on your “what if” list. your choice, girlie.” she finishes off before walking out to the counter, your breaks finally over.

you roll your eyes at the nickname. denise has a point though. and in terms of love and relationships, denise has always been the expert.

fine, i’ll ask her out. you thought to yourself before finishing your cup of coffee.

“hi, welcome to bake & brew! what can i get ya?” you look to guy in-front of the register. steve harrington.

“hey y/n. 1 americano and…. a strawberry donut with sprinkles.” he says handing you dollar bills.

“is robin with you?” he shakes his head. noticing your face fall with disappointment.

“she’s at the video store, she took her break early so….” you nod, trying to hide the fact that you are sad over the fact that you don’t get to see her.

“did you wanna see her?” steve asked which made your eyes widen. “i- uh- well- the thing is…” you clear your throat. well shit, this is embarrassing. “yeah, i was going to ask her something.” you say trying to keep a straight face.

you hand steve his order as he nods slowly. “yeah well, you can come by the video store anytime, we’re open ‘til 6. pretty sure she wants to ask you something too. ” he gives you a reassuring smile, before walking off.

oh my god. that was all your mind has thought about for the last 4 hours. what did robin want to talk to me about? do you think she noticed when i’d stare at her? goddamnit why do i even stare at her? oh right because she’s gorgeous, she’s amazing, and she’s one of the nicest people i’ve ever met. oh goooooood.

you found your job to be the most boring thing today. looking over at the wall clock every chance you get, wishing for time to pass by very fast. you planned on going there when your shift finishes.

tick. tick. tick. tick. the clock struck 5.

“goodluck!” your co-worker denise shouts at you as you exit the coffee shop. turning the corner to run to the parking lot.

only to bump into robin buckley herself.

“sorry i-“

“oh god i’m-“

you stare at each other. both speechless.

“i’m sorry, i- i was in a hurry. i was going to the video store actually! uhm i wanted to talk to you about something.” you say running a hand through your hair. hoping she wouldn’t notice your nervousness.

“i know. steve told me and i couldn’t think straight for the past i don’t know like 4 hours. my mind is like everywhere. am in trouble? do you think i’m weird?” she sighs. “the thing is-“ she rambles, fiddling with her fingers.

you stare at her eyes. “i like you, robin.” you blurt out. finally.

“what?” robin looks at you with wide eyes, looking around, then looking back at you, eyes full of hope. hope that you weren’t kidding. that this wasn’t some sort of prank.

“i like you. ever since the day, you said no to coffee that denise offered you. she gave that coffee to me instead.” you laugh. “i asked her what it was for and she told me “oh buckley didn’t want it.” and i asked who buckley was and she..” you were rambling at this point hoping she would stop you. reject you, reciprocate your feelings, you didn’t know as long as she would make you stop because right now you wish the floor would swallow you.

you sit down at the bench in front of you.

robin follows. “i like you too.” robin says quickly. staring at you with that spark in her eyes. smiling at you, oh so beautifully. “since the day you bumped into me at the library. you were rushing to your locker because i think you were supposed to meet a friend and i didn’t say a thing because well, i thought you were straight.”

“do you.. do you wanna get ice cream sometime? or a movie, whatever you want.” smiling at her. “that was what i was gonna ask you originally but you just- i couldn’t help it okay?” you laugh. reaching out for her hand, which she immediately gives.

robin laughs. “well, how could i say no to that pretty face.” she loves how you look right now. the sunset in the background. you, being here with her, finally confessed your feelings to each other. she wished this moment would never end.

after minutes of sitting there, it started to get dark. you offered to bring robin home, to which she agreed.

“hey, thanks for dropping me off.” she smiles, holding your hand. “yeah, no problem.”

you stare into her eyes, then her lips. god, i badly want to kiss her right now. “you’re staring.” “oh- i- sorry” you nervously say.

she giggles. “can i kiss you?” robin asks to which you nod to.

kissing robin buckley in your car at 6 in the evening on a random summer day was one of the things you least expected to happen this summer.

kissing you was something robin buckley didn’t expect to happen. you tasted like mint & coffee.

she hated coffee, it was bitter. but the taste of coffee mixed with your lips, was the sweetest thing.
